POST/api/astro/dasamsa/1 credit

Dasamsa (D10)

The dasamsa, the tenth divisional chart: each sign divided into ten parts of 3° each. Read for career, profession, status and public standing. The usual companion to the navamsa when judging working life rather than personal life. Returns the same flat shape as /api/astro/planet-positions/: the planets as a list in traditional order with `name`, longitude, sign, nakshatra, pada and house on each, plus the ascendant and the ayanamsa applied. Send a date and a place; `ayanamsa` defaults to LAHIRI and all 48 are accepted. The chart is fixed by the route, so a `chart_name` in the body is ignored - this endpoint cannot return anything but the chart it is named for. /api/astro/chart/ is where to go for the other 24 divisions.

Request fields

Field	Type	Required	Notes
chart_name	string	required
datetime	string (date-time)	required	The moment to calculate for, ISO 8601. ALWAYS include an offset or a trailing Z - a value with no zone is read as Asia/Kolkata (UTC+05:30), not UTC. Same meaning as date_time, which other endpoints call the same thing by a different name.
latitude	number (double)	required	Latitude of the place, in decimal degrees. Positive is north, negative is south. Example: 26.9124 for Jaipur, 40.7128 for New York. Minutes and seconds are not accepted - convert first. min -89.9 · max 89.9
longitude	number (double)	required	Longitude of the place, in decimal degrees. Positive is east, negative is west. Example: 75.7873 for Jaipur, -74.0060 for New York. Note the sign: a missing minus puts New York in China. min -180 · max 180
aberration	boolean	optional
apply_correction	boolean	optional
ascendant_pos	string	optional	`cuspstartend`
ayanamsa	string	optional
correction_deg	integer	optional	min 0
correction_direction	string	optional	`addsubtract`
correction_min	integer	optional	min 0 · max 59
correction_sec	integer	optional	min 0 · max 59
extended_bodies	array	optional	Body groups to include: 'asteroids', 'planetary_moons', 'fictitious_bodies'.
notation	string	optional	`astrologicaldegree`
nutation	boolean	optional
rahu	string	optional	Node type to include. 'true' returns true nodes only, 'mean' returns mean nodes only, 'both' returns both. `truemeanboth`
refraction	boolean	optional
true_mean	string	optional	`TrueMean`
use_28_nakshatras	boolean	optional
